Celebrity Big Brother contestant Alexander O’Neal has apologised to his fans after reportedly admitting that his time spent in the house caused him to have a drugs relapse.
The 61-year-old, who walked off the show in January, reportedly revealed that he turned to cocaine in the aftermath of the experience.
“It has been extensively reported how this series of CBB has been one of the most stressful and volatile in the history of the show,” his spokesperson told the Sunday Mirror.
“It has been documented in the past that Alexander has had issues that have led to him seeking professional help and treatment.
“This was a momentary relapse, completely out of his recent character and behaviour and he will certainly be addressing and dealing with this immediately,” he continued.
“Alexander has a lot of positive projects to look forward to over the next few months, including a tour and new material he is working on, and hopes this momentary lapse will not interfere with those.
“He asks his fans to forgive him and apologises if he has let any of you down.”
